Romania has a long established hitchhiking tradition from the communist era. Back then, few people had cars, and there was a constant fuel shortage, so sharing a ride was the best way to get from A to B.
It´s It's recommended to try hitchhiking right on the highway. For people from west Europe it might feel strange but it´s it's most defintetly the fastest way to get a lift.

== Roads ==
The roads are very outdated. There are only 3 motorways in all of Romania:
* The [[A1 (Romania)|A1]] going 127km 127 km from [[Bucureşti]] to [[Piteşti]] - the only fully operational motorway in Romania* The [[A2 (Romania)|A2]] or ''Sun's motorway'', going 204km 204 km from [[Bucureşti]] to [[Constanţa]] - only 75 % completed* The [[A3 (Romania)|A3]] or ''Transylvania motorway'', going 588km 588 km from [[Bucureşti]] to the border with [[Hungary]] - under construction, due 2013
Most of the other roads are in poor condition, the European routes being the best. Even so, hitching a ride is quite easy, especially on the major European roads that get a lot of traffic.
== Number plates ==
[[Image:Map_romania_regions_and_districts.jpg|thumb|right|float|Political map of Romania: historical regions and counties]]
The most used type of license plate uses a ''cc-99-xyz'' format, where ''cc'' is the 2-letter county code, ''99'' a random 2-digit number, and ''xyz'' 3 random letters.<br/>It's quite possible to see [[Bucharest]] registered plates ('''B'''''-99-xyz'') all over the country, as all the leasing companies are based in Bucharest, and people are obliged to use Bucharest plates while their cars are in leasing.
